Sofia Vergara confirms dating with American businessman Douglas Chabot, 39
Sofia Vergara admitted her relationship with American businessman Douglas Chabot following public appearances and increased media attention. The announcement, made via social media, followed months of rumors.
Actress Sofia Vergara has confirmed her new romantic relationship with American businessman Douglas Chabot. The announcement comes after several months of public speculation. However, a recent social media post put an end to the rumors about her personal life.
Vergara, 53, shared a photo taken at a restaurant with Chabot. There was also a message with it “te amo (I love you).” The post provided clarity following public curiosity and media reports linking the two since mid-2025.
Chabot, 39, reportedly serves as vice president at Dassan Inc., a company specializing in luxury jewelery and high-end design. He has maintained a relatively private profile, appearing primarily in the business and philanthropic fields.
The pair were first linked at the beginning of the year after several public appearances, including an event in Pasadena and a birthday celebration in Cerdia. These events contributed to increased speculation about the nature of their relationship before Vergara’s public confirmation.
The actor’s relationship history has often attracted media attention. She married actor Joe Manganiello in 2015, their marriage lasted for almost a decade and they divorced in 2024.
Following her divorce, Vergara was reportedly briefly engaged to Beverly Hills-based orthopedic surgeon Dr. Justin Sleiman. Their romance was also shared with the public via Instagram, but reportedly ended in early 2025. Around the same period, rumors circulated about other possible relationships, including one with NFL player Tom Brady, but these were dismissed by entertainment sources.
Vergara’s recent post with Chabot marks a shift toward a more private approach to sharing her personal life. Instead of addressing the rumors through interviews or statements, he opted for direct and simple messaging online.
By sharing “Te Amo” on her social media, Vergara has allowed her followers and the public to see this new phase of her personal life.
